Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Elizabethtown are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which might trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Elizabethtown who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
